<img src="file:///path/to/desktop/picture.jpg"> "file://" instructs the browser to inquire at the local file system (the third slash is to start at the root directory). To retrieve files using "http://" you need to be running a webserver that answers on TCP port 80, then you request images relative to web root: http://images/picture.jpg Where "images/" is a folder inside the folder the webserver considers to be "web root".

You can try: Put the jpg in the same place as the web page, then strip the absolute path. A local webserver, like: python -m http.server This image, just to ensure something weird isn't going in [doesn't look like it, doesn't hurt to check]. https://via.placeholder.com/50x50 Do you by chance have file extensions hidden (meaning your file has a double extension)?

It's likely an issue with the link. Can I have a look at the code?

Following Kirk's guide, point the browser to the image on your desktop like: <img src="file:///C:/Users/neha/Desktop/skylark.jpg"/>
